Subject: So funny!
Subject: So funny!
Oftentimes works like this lose some of their potency with age. There are some references here that will go over one's head because they're dated, but the overall theme of each article still rings true and humorous. Backseat drivers, playing bridge (which I pictured as a progressive euchre tournament - it all still applies), keeping track of one's finances - so many of these still fit today.
Arnold and Melora are the two readers of this audio, and they both do a superb job. The other version of this (version 2) has a reader that goes so fast, you can't absorb anything. Both these readers are chatting with you at your fireside, so to speak, and let you savor the scenarios presented.
